international news and comment live from our studios here in central moscow this is with you twenty four hours a day good to have you with us this hour so the u.s. presidents and u.k. prime minister used their joint speech in london to reiterate their demands for the libyan leader to go once again showing that the special friendship of the two english speaking nations is particularly relevant when it comes to conflicts on foreign soil or emirate has more now from london. again david cameron said during this news conference very categorically gadhafi must go but as i say they are still insisting that they're complying with the u.n. resolution they talk about it an awful lot of slices and everything they say but in the same sentence both these leaders are reiterating the need as they see it for exactly to go so it's a difficult way out of those two seemingly very different viewpoints.

the very least it was necessary to disable gadhafi is capacity to attack his own civilians and then of course there's the issue of moving him from power and possibly targeting him directly but what they're saying is that it's impossible to comply with the resolution to protect civilians if indeed gadhafi is still in power so that's how they're justifying it of course are saying that this is a clear case of regime change one of the major things that's come out of this visit is this setting up of a joint security border between the u.s. and the u.k. and what that will do is open up the defense and security resources of washington to london and. some people are saying that's just a formalization of an informal agreement that was already in place of course we see in the u.s. fighting various wars together and using their defense strategy techniques very closely in line with each other but some see that formalization of this working relationship as very dangerous to the rest of the world as my record is full smiles

and handshakes as the u.k. and the u.s. take their special relationship to the next level washington's preparing to open up its highly secretive national security council to london as the two countries pledged to deal jointly with perceived security and foreign policy challenges but at what cost to the rest of the world i don't think you. will see any dramatic government. britain already shares a huge amount of intelligence with the united states in fact britain's nuclear deterrent can actually a nuclear missile on its own so in fact what is happening today is largely symbolic the special relationship phrase was a deeply testy one when blair was in power and his relationship with bush was seen in britain to be much more one of a rather than a partner and yes in

a sense it will describe is unpopular was. not everyone welcomes president obama's presence in the u.k. a range of groups are using it as an opportunity to demonstrate against what they see as the anglo-saxon machine and islamist fringe organizations linked aggressive foreign policy led by the u.s. and the u.k. supported variously by france and other nato allies with terror attacks there's a war taking place against some of the since the last of the two believe that stop supporting the dictators it wasn't countries that's not torturing us supporting the car sort of his role. models you know. the u.s. and u.k. have been involved in two major wars in the last ten years in both iraq and afghanistan america persuaded britain to come in with them reinforcing britain's reputation as the us is lap dog. but this time it's different in libya it's pretty and taking the

lead in nato with the us keen to keep it to a minimum the deepening of corporation between the two is something this group of demonstrators of a imminently objects to these are hostile to the us starting to see to libya. three major wars in ten years those good for those of us who want peace in the world to see streetcars corporation walk closely. outside buckingham palace where obama is staying these protesters are trying to persuade him and british prime minister cameron to stop waging war in foreign lands safe it hasn't worked and cameron we're united in their intention to increase pressure on colonel gadhafi in libya. and this demonstration come as need to escalate its involvement in the war in libya france's that able to call

a helicopters bringing the fighting closer to the grounds the global warming seen grumbles with the alliance of london and washington in the engine room and this new agreements to cool information and resource this may only fuel to the fire you are at it r.t. . for more on this and a little later by barry gardner he's a labor m.p. of the british parliament and he'll be joining me from london as i say in a few minutes from now here on the t.v. well it's just one day to go before the g eight summit kicks off in the french resort of view the meeting will be hosted by nicolas sarkozy as his country holds the presidency of the group this year and is all too easily so now reports from under his leadership played a leading role in causing the problems the summit is aiming to solve. the g. eight has gone full circle the last time the summit was held in france eight years ago the agenda look almost the same. war the economy and somewhere in the

middle aid to africa on the table then iraq and boosting the euro now it's libya and saving the euro. two thousand and three france had a very different stance on global politics then it was staunchly opposed to the u.s. invasion of iraq french fries quickly became freedom fries after france u.s. relations soured just might summit smiles but with a new french president came a new friend circles he has rejected entirely the possibility of friends playing a constructive role in a multi multi-polar world and has aligned himself with the thing power the united states nowadays france is barking much louder with more soldiers involved in foreign military conflicts of brawn then ever before it's a globalized modern colonies and it's not just the friends it's. global plan to change governments as they want. france played

a central role in ivory coast's bloody presidential stalemate and is considered the unspoken leader of the intervention in libya this great. to participate and to be one of the first. ruler western ruler to to go there and just for his political agenda critics say this new global policy was meant to win over french food hers but hasn't worked trances a kind of small united states with many interventions that are very costly and very little thinking about the relationship between rhetoric and the cost. and cost is the killer european countries are facing more and more protest over huge spending cuts in an attempt to lower to physics and save a drowning euro the sex scandal involving i.m.f.

had done an extra one might have knocked out a top contender competing against sarkozy for the presidency but experts say d.s. k. was toppled at the wrong time when you've still got worries about the euro will still be the currency of all these european countries in the next twelve to twenty four months and at the same time spending hundreds of millions forcing their way into libya conflict they don't see eye to eye but they going to try to regroup around. the idea that it's a humanitarian intervention and the u.n. resolution a resolution that china and russia didn't veto but it claims has been manipulated to suit western interests there will be an appearance. but if there is an appearance of agreement in my mind it will only be an appearance appearance at the g eight is hard not to notice the venue is usually some exclusive resort town where

you can't hear protests over the euro and it's easy to forget bombs are falling in libya this year france is beautiful normandy was chosen as house leaders as they sit down to debate some of the world's ugliest problems and once again are faced with the question of whether the g. eight can regroup and split in its years and he's now a r t v france. and of course we'll bring you extensive coverage of the two to the g eight summit as well as expert analysis of the event and issues discussed there right here on r.t. . afghanistan. weapons of mass destruction. terrorism. as protests. drug trafficking. global financial system. the world is turning good will be eight speak with

one voice. so we'll g. eight summit on r.t. . that's now return to our top story here and a lot in president obama's visit to london and for more on this i'm joined live by barry gummies a labor member of the british parliament is there in the capital there thanks very much indeed for joining us now there is a lot of talk about leisure this joint security plan that the u.k. and the u.s. want to establish but some would say the british foreign policy has been very dependent on washington anyway so is this going to change anything. well i think it's interesting that people are talking about the security plan but there has been no response to parliament there has been no written statement to parliament and it's very much talking about the future of foreign policy being closely aligned. certainly if you look at the way in which britain and america's interests are

developed in the world obama is the first pacific president to sell food gullibly not an atlanticist and it's difficult to see how that alignment would take place there will always be strategic issues that we share in common and we want to act together upon but i think this is. best a bit of rhetoric at the moment perhaps for the visit but why is it being perceived as a danger to the rest of the world if we do get this closer alliance. well i don't think it should be perceived as a danger to anybody and quite frankly it's not about posing a threat it's about making sure as any country would that it is allied with and aware of the interests of its allies and that it is strategically positioned to do the maximum for its own population its own people but the idea that there should be some sort of fusion of all of british and american foreign policy i think is

totally implausible particularly at this point when increasingly the important region to america is the pacific region but surely what people are concerned about now is what we're seeing in libya but many would say that surely the u.s. u.k. and its allies have learned a lesson from former conflicts in iraq and afghanistan. well you know my position was one of the thirteen members of parliament who are against the war in libya i do think that here it's very interesting that america is absolutely in the rear guard of this action france and the u.k. have been in the fore and america has been really a reluctant allies saying well we feel that there's an obligation to be with you here and of course we very few people would support colonel gadhafi the crimes that he has committed over the past forty years on his own people have been pretty

horrendous. but america has not been at the forefront it really is almost repaying past debts and the americans have seen that they they have to go with britain on this one yes but some people say america hasn't been at the forefront because it's getting others to do its dirty work for it many people. say that britain is just being a lapdog and it's a one sided relationship with the u.s. that really would be a mistake and i stress again that you know i voted against this this conflict i voted against british involvement but it would be wrong to think that. britain is doing america's bidding that is not the case indeed it was david cameron who went to the united nations and argued for the resolution one thousand nine hundred seventy three which gave the authority for the powers to go into libya so i think it's important to see that this is not a u.s.

policy that is being carried out by france and the u.k. it's actually very much the u.k. and france that have been in the lead both politically and militarily and the united states has been a reluctant partner i would say rather than calling the shots as you say you're against the intervention in libya but what about david cameron's recent comment saying this is once in a generation moment to support democracy movements in the middle east would you go along with that. i think it is absolutely right that we should support movements for democracy wherever they take place in the world and if you look at what's happened in egypt if you look at what's happened in tunisia and what of course is unfolding at the moment in syria and in other parts of the middle east it is right that people in their desire for freedom from the regimes that have held them in such coercion for so long. that it does not mean that britain should

be militarily intervening in that region very to hear what you say are really out of time and just briefly smiles and handshakes there for obama is he really that popular and are people really that interested in his visit just briefly he's a very charismatic politician i think he will continue to be of interest to the public great to hear from you barry thanks. barry gardner labor m.p. lloyd grove from london always good to have your naughty thank you. well more stories to come for you. all to you live in moscow about ten minutes from now we travel to russia's republic of dagestan for a rare acquaintance. this path leads to mantle house walks through three same trees was telling his biography it is possible terms of the development of the country's history people come to visit and talk to him under the name of the man who has agreed to share some of his secrets to a long life with us here. in georgia thousands of opposition supporters are into

their fifth straight day of protests against the government and the mobbing and to state sanctioned corruption and the resignation of president really who they accused of abusing his position to maintain power. as the details for us from their release. but the day of rage like being canceled but these pay tested certainly still angry concede a marching from their initial side by the t.v. station they come down the rise and heading towards freedom they're actually stopping the traffic now and the numbers to take that quite significantly from what we saw earlier on the rally has gone ahead they have people out of here. you can still see the people wearing the mask carrying this big. relief right that very angry the opposition calling for an end to what they say is an undemocratic since they want really out there marching towards freedom headed to their independence to

march make their voices. they take in the process rights to this that says i'm a parliament building it is they were marching along the streets today many more demonstrators joining in it's now around five thousand people here listening to the opposition addressing the crowd you know because you know the classic movement you know i think you know if you're leading this rally today this being touched by some people the silver revolution this older generation you can see in the crowd said these people are struggling with life and why feed prices a lot more people here older generation the we came when the process started we saw this fight in clashes between police and protesters some of them being arrested fights breaking out whether that's going to happen again and so it gets me there are going to. play is that independence and that military operates more.

a recap of our main stories in about seven minutes from now in the meantime the business news is next with kareena stay with us live here in moscow. there and welcome to our business thanks for joining me this hour russia's economic growth is it still orating propped up by strong commodities prices they state expects the economy to would cover to its pre-crisis levels by the beginning of next year however poor larsen chief investment officer at the board already had bank doubts that we would be so quick when you have information running in one percent of their innovates and it was double that let's say in the last six months again you lies that there are significant underlying inflation issue really interest rates are still too low so monetary policy needs to be tightened if you flame is going to be controlled and if you tight monetary policy at a time when we're seeing fiscal policy tightening bite in western europe we're going to see fiscal policy tightening in the u.s. and you course we're likely to see at some point in the future a japanese financial crisis we're seeing the chinese economy slowing down under the

burden of monetary policy designed to tighten conditions there to dampen their inflation issue it seems to us that the risk in russia in the near term could very well be towards a slower rather than a faster economy. the price of oil has slipped by around thirteen percent since its highs of one hundred twenty four twenty five dollars per barrel in march is chief economist for russia and c.i.s. believes there's nothing to stop it hovering around a hundred dollar level. this little. consumers and producers to give you one fact on the supply side after the recent. unrest social unrest promotes africa in the middle east many governments and invest region have to increase their social spending so their budget is going to be broken even from a price of about hunger. this is true even for saudi arabia which used to be able to leave with much lower on precious little given the market is

a monopolist monarch. there is only growing with being about business one important factor. and let's take a look at the markets now as we see oil jumping above one hundred dollars per barrel is sending energy companies in the start of the poorest to five hundred one point four percent and this is awaiting the results of the us one energy products report expected later today now let's take a look at u.s. stocks that are high as shares of commodity produces advance for the second day that help us take are the markets not the piece not consumer companies a world where though we buy stock a wall sale i'm polo ralph will run up to earnings missed analyst estimates that european stocks closed in the black on wednesday gains for banks such as commerzbank com a because the fiat's are providing supports in london barclays gained two point three percent of the world bank of scotland was one point three percent higher. here in moscow the main stock index has closed in the black stocks

edged high an evening session climbing for second day in my eyes it's just one percent reverse and probably only a loss as. we've seen a bit of a rebound in the financial sector where no more clarity at the time and the parameters of ok your program which seems to be large enough for a bit optimistic also north korea question only we see a bit of mist and i was in the oil over there and there were many others in the market generally think we can solve the. this week having reached the low since the beginning of the year and the do truly look like attractive well as decided by the russian market will we feel the rebound is about to happen the it is going to be happening much slower than that than the correction and we've seen in may because there is a lot of global headlines of place in the market. now the cars across is a turning into an economic collapse. the market sells us price as prices show double digit rises the pace is out to keep the economy afloat the crisis stricken country needs forecasts russia's ready to bail out but this comes under the

condition that it carries out market reforms among them as privatization and i know it's minister alex sequence has. also asked us for over seven billion dollars over the next three years green market reforms are the only way to overcome this costs. in the end the only country which has the ability to be able to help is actually better as they are the ones that have to make the structural changes that they need to get their economy back on line it's not you can help solve the problem by providing funding in the short term either from the i.m.f. or more likely from russia but it's not going to solve the longer term issues in the in the medium term when when things actually do turn around and by the risks they have to in the markets are forcing change now in belarus when they do turn around then they're going to be a lot of opportunity for russian companies to move into belarus use the experience of a god use the connections they have in belarus to help rebuild the economy. and that's the latest business we have for you will be back with more or less tax for.

they faced it this is not a provocation but a warning. to the forces and we should say it's never what you should disapprove futurist because they have no idea about the hardships to face.
